1t is highly important that the
friends and supporters of General
Nichols should keep themselves
thoroughly informed in regard to
the progress of the canvass now
going on in this State. The most
eminent leaders of the Louisiana
Democracy are in the field. Mich
oils clubs are being organized in
every parish, public meetings OF
great interest are of almest daily
occurrence, and the discussion of the
various issues involved is marked by
unusual earnestness and ability
The New Orleans Picayune has fur
nished its readers with an accurate
and comprehensive account of this
movement from its inception, and
will continue to do so to the close of
the struggle, in order that the pub
lie may understand the situation
perfectly, and that General Nichols
| and his friends may be fully and
fairly reported. For these reasons,
We deem it proper to commend the
Daily Picayune to the favorable
consideration of all who are inter,
ested in the effort being made tC
seccre our party aud State from the
evils of ring rule and personal gov
ernment. Terms, 81 q month fol

Our Wealthy Men.

Much has been said in newspapers of
men who have made large fortunes in
comparatively few years in various
business industries. Many Of these arti-
cles are written by CORRESPONDENTS of
newspapers, and copied into others OF
lesser note. Correspondents generally are
seldom men of business qualifications and
wrongfully picture these men and their
business as thing of accident; this is
not the case of those we have met. We
find that where men have made large for
tunes by their own business talent ane in
dustry they chose with sagacity and fore
thought such business as would lead to
success when handled with business judg
ment. No man has been brought before
the public as an example Of success, both
in wealth and magnitude of his business
Outside of stock and railroad mem more
prominently than DR.. G. G. Green of
Woodbury., n. J. He is at the head of
many large business industries, and yet
comparatively a young man. When the
fact that August Flower, for dyspepsia
and liver complaint and Boschee's Ger
man Syrup, for coughs and lung troubles,
has grown to Il Woneerful sale in all parts
of the world, it proves that it was not an
accident or spontaneous strike at wealth.
His medicines are recognized as valuable
and established remedies and the business
has grown gradually and permanently
during the last eighteen years on account
not alone of DR.. Green's abilities as a
business man or his 'good luck" but on
the actual merits of the two preparations.
